Agis AvP The Hunt begins minis

[Agis]

Agis, they are perfect(your Aliens). All paintings are great. What rules do you use? Old Starship Troopers or play test of your new ones?

Well right now I play around with forces based on Victory Decision Future Combat for Marines and Preds, and Victory Decision: Future Combat - Rival Species for Aliens.

I was amazed myself that I already covered all Alien minis from Prodos ...

Stalker, Infant and Warrior can be done using the Assault Warrior Horde from Page 19.
Stalker: Assault Warrior Horde with Options (Soft-shelled Armour, Fast)
Infant: Assault Warrior Horde with Options (Soft-shelled Armour, Infiltrator)
Warrior: Assault Warrior Horde with Options (Alert and Deadly)

Worked good so far!

You really are selling me on these models! The newest stuff all looks fantastic!

[uti long smile]

Fantastic stuff!

[Sgt. Scream]

That Marine looks awesome! 

[Michi]

That Marine looks awesome! 

Yes, exactly! That sets the bar for you quit high, Christian! 

[Agis]

Thanks again Folks!

That sets the bar for you quit high, Christian! 

And no pressure please... 

[Giger]

That Marine (well and infants too)

I'm going to disagree with the majority here, and applaud the choice of the dark beige color scheme for the stalker aliens. After all, it's the canonical scheme based on the appearance of the Aliens 3 xeno, on which these minis are based.

I also think that, once you have a sizeable horde of the bugs together, different colours will help differentiate them easily; otherwise, it may be difficult telling them appart, with all those exposed ribs, long tails and elongated heads.

This KS has been a big pain in the arse for us backers, but in the end it has finally paid off. The minis are astounding, and those heavily textured alien sculpts lend themselves very well for speed painting techniques.
Keep up with the good work, Agis!

I was again busy last week.
Another batch of Infant Aliens:

I could not resist and make one stand out, the famous “grid” Alien from the AvP movie.
Grid was a smooth-domed Xenomorph Drone spawned during the ill-fated Weyland Expedition to Bouvetøya. Grid was responsible for killing the Predator Scar's brothers and clanmates Chopper and Celtic, and was able to escape being shot by Scar's plasma caster attacks.


KS exclusive female Predator - again a very good sculpt, IMO a bit thin for a bulky Pred, so I decided to make her look even more gaunt, ripped abs and all.


And while at it I also repainted an old HororClix Predator! Fits good sizewise:



and as always more on my site:

Swcheet Jeebus, but that's some mighty fine paintin' there.

[Verderer]

Yes, very nice indeed. Where do you get those bases, are they your own work?

I've been kinda on the fence about Fenris Sulaco & Ark bases...

[Sgt. Scream]

The old Wizkids Preds perfectly fit to the range of Prodos' Predator figures. Good job, Agis! 

[JoeRugby]

Looking awesome.

What colours did you use for grids grid?

[Agis]

Big thanks folks!

Yes, very nice indeed. Where do you get those bases, are they your own work?

I've been kinda on the fence about Fenris Sulaco & Ark bases...

My bases are more or less my own work using, Milliput, sand, some Alien parts, some plastic scrap and Anvil Industries Rubble parts: http://anvilindustry.co.uk/Anvil-Gaming-Bases
Great stuff!

[Vanvlak]

Stunning! Especially Scar, nice choice for a unique pattern.
